The Honorable Ken Salazar Secretary of the Interior 1849 C Street NW Washington DC 20240 August 26, 2009 The Honorable Ken Salazar Secretary of the Interior 1849 C Street NW Washington DC 20240 Dear Secretary Salazar, We the undersigned hunting and angling businesses and organizations representing millions of sportsmen, outdoor recreation groups and related businesses congratulate you on your appointment as Secretary of the Interior. We sincerely appreciate your past leadership on conservation issues in the United States Senate and look forward to working with you to conserve the rich hunting and fishing traditions in Alaska. As hunting, fishing, and outdoor enthusiasts, business owners and representatives and members of organizations who care deeply about the long‐ term health and productivity of the Bristol Bay watershed, we are deeply concerned about an attempt by the Bush administration to remove protections for fish and wildlife in the Bay Resource Management Plan (RMP). Much of one million acres covered by the Bay RMP lie adjacent to tributaries of the Nushagak and Kvichak Rivers ‐ two of the most productive wild salmon rivers in the world. The Bristol Bay watershed supports healthy runs of five species of Pacific salmon, trout, char, grayling, northern pike, and Dolly Varden. The region is home to populations of caribou, moose, waterfowl, and bear which are pursued by both sport and subsistence hunters. From an economic standpoint, the region’s sport, commercial and subsistence fisheries generate approximately $360 million per year and provide jobs for some 12,500 people. Unfortunately, the current RMP fails to account for the natural values in this area and unnecessarily jeopardizes a world class fishery and sporting destination. The undersigned businesses and organizations respectfully request that the Bureau of Land Management maintain the current prohibition on hard rock mining and oil and gas development on lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in the Bristol Bay region. We further request that the BLM supplement the Bay RMP to analyze an alternative that will ensure the long‐ term health of this world‐class commercial, sport and subsistence fishery. We are convinced that your agency can produce and implement a land‐use plan for Bristol Bay that will generate economic opportunities while also conserving sporting and indigenous traditions for future generations. We look forward to working with the BLM as we move quickly to reverse the wrong‐headed 1 decisions that were made in the closing months of the last administration and implement a common sense plan for fish and wildlife in Bristol Bay.

  • The Lake Clark-Mulchatna Region, Alaska
    THE LAKE CLARK-MULCHATNA REGION, ALASKA By STEPHEN R. CAPPS INTRODUCTION LOCATION AND GENERAL CHARACTER OF THE REGION The region here considered lies in south-central Alaska, on the west flank of the Alaska Range between latitude 60° 15' and 61° 5' north and longitude 153° 40' and 155° 10' west, and includes the western face of the range and a part of the foothills in a belt that ranges from 15 to 25 miles in width and extends from Lake Clark northeast­ ward to the basin of the Stony River. It is therefore an intermediate belt, bordered on the east by the high, rugged, snow-capped moun­ tains of the Alaska Range, which reach altitudes of 8,000 to 9,000 feet or more, and on the west by the headwater basins of the Mul- chatna River, a tributary of the southward-flowing Nushagak River, and the Hoholitna and Stony Rivers, tributaries of the Kuskokwim. These basins are characterized by wide, level lowlands broken by more or less isolated hills and ridges of mature slopes, that rise 1,000 to 3,000 feet or more above the adjacent valleys. The existence of a large lake at approximately the position of Lake Clark, at the south edge of the region here described, has been fairly well known since the early days of the Russian occupancy. The area north of Lake Clark, although it has been visited by a considerable number of white prospectors and trappers during the last 30 years, has remained one of the little-known parts of Alaska.

  • Navigable Rivers and Lakes
    Chapter 3 – Navigable Rivers and Lakes Navigable Rivers and Lakes Management Intent of Navigable Waterbodies Background The intent of the plan is to designate and provide management intent for the shorelands under all navigable waterbodies. There are so many navigable rivers and lakes in the planning area that it is not practical to state the management intent for each individual waterbody. Therefore the plan identifies general management intent and designations for most of the waterbodies within the planning area. In some cases, however, specific designations are identified for a particular waterbody because of the size, uniqueness, or particular values and functions of a river or lake. The term "shorelands" is defined as land belonging to the state, which is covered by non-tidal water that is navigable under the laws of the United States up to the ordinary high water mark as modified by accretion, erosion, or reliction (AS 38.05.965). See Figure 1.1 at the beginning of Chapter 1 for a diagram that illustrates the differences between shorelands, submerged lands, and uplands. Shorelands are not identified on the preceding plan designation maps within this Chapter. Identification of all such waterbodies is impractical on maps of the scale used in this plan. The DNR records on navigability and hydrology must be consulted in order to determine whether a specific stream or lake is likely to be navigable. These records are available in the Public Access Assertion & Defense Unit, Division of Mining, Land, and Water in Anchorage. For further information on the state’s navigability policy, go to http://www.dnr.state.ak.us/mlw/nav/nav_policy.htm Public Trust Doctrine The Public Trust Doctrine provides that public trust lands, waters and living natural resources in a state are held by the state in trust for the benefit of all the people, and establishes the right of the public to fully utilize the public trust lands, waters, and resources for a wide variety of public uses.
